    What's your favorite pocket knife?

    Fallkniven U2 lockback. http://www.knifeworks.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=5115 Holds an edge, lightweight, doesn't raise any eyebrows at work, priceless... Jim

    What's your most durable flashlight?

    My PT40 took a beating the last time we had some minor flooding to deal with. I had lithium batteries in it which probably gave me longer run time, and made it lighter to carry. I had it on a lanyard around my wrist. It spent enough time in the water and mud, bouncing off rocks, to convince...

    Mini Mag LED 2xAA seems like a killer light. Period.

    How does the MM 2AA LED compare to the 3W drop-in mods for the MM? Jim

    Tec-40, $6.93 at REI Outlet

    The last time we had an electric outage and minor flooding during a bad rain storm, my PT40 got a real work out. It took a beating in the mud and rain and came through with flying colors. This one is a keeper. Jim

    3" folder suggestions on a budget

    I work in an office, and carry a Fallkniven U2 just about every day. Here's a link: http://www.knifeworks.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=5115 It's lightweight, holds an edge very well, and doesn't raise any eyebrows when I use it with other workers nearby. Pretty good bang for the...

    SF 9-N Battery

    I'm interested in the answer to this one as well. I remember reading about a mod to a Streamlight battery some time ago, but haven't seen anything lately. Jim

    Hunting/Tracking Light Recommendations

    Welcome to the forums. I have been well served by a PT Aurora in my coat pocket and a minimag with a 3W sandwich and a kroll clickie on my belt. Both get used on those dark to dark hunting treks. Jim

    Thinking of buying the Surefire L1

    Welcome to the forums. I've had an older L1 for awhile, and have used it while walking the dog. Most of the time I use the lower setting to preserve night vision. About the only issue I noticed while walking the dog is the lack of throw on the higher setting. It's not a problem, it's just...

    Sam's Club Elements

    Re: Re-evaluation (Sam's Element 3AAA) I have the "old" version....bright and white. I slipped a length of bicycle tire inner tube over the body of the light which improved its grip in cold weather. It's pretty useful around the house, especially with rechargeable batteries. Jim

    Idea for 2nd hunting pack light

    A PT Aurora in my coat, a minimag with a 3-watt drop-in LED and a Kroll switch on my belt and a photon II clipped to my keys has served me well in the deer woods. Its dark when I go in and many times dark when I walk out of the woods (unless I'm lucky enough to fill a tag earlier in the day)...

    Energizer 2500 or Duracell 2500?

    Similar experience here using those batteries and charger. Jim

    Tec 40..better bulb?

    I've had pretty good luck using the 4-cell Xenon star also. Jim

    My 6P 'aint pretty no more :(

    You can get black touchup for aluminum. I think Birchwood Casey makes it. I found it in the the shooting supplies section at the local sporting goods store. It works similar to touchup paint for cars. A couple of light coats cleaned up some scratches on one of my SF lights. The repair has...
